A science fair turns into a superhero problem

Princess Magnolia arrives at the Interkingdom Science Fair ready to present a poster about seeds and plants, alongside friends showcasing a mole habitat, a blanket fort, and a talking volcano. When a goo monster interrupts the exhibits, Magnolia’s masked identity as the Princess in Black comes into play, with the Princess in Blankets joining the response. The setup brings classroom-style projects together with superhero action, while the fair’s unusual creations give the adventure a playful science theme. Scientific problem-solving is part of how the heroes face the disruption.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Children ages 4–8 who enjoy superhero adventures with princess characters.
  • Young readers interested in science fairs, plants, animals, or hands-on projects.

Book overview

It's mayhem at the science fair! A squishy goo monster is a challenge for the Princess in Black -- but luckily some science-loving princesses are on hand to help.

Princess Magnolia is excited. Excited and nervous. She's going to the Interkingdom Science Fair today to present her poster about seeds and plants, and when she arrives, she sees that her friends are there too! Princess Honeysuckle made a mole habitat, Princess Sneezewort has built a blanket fort, and Tommy Wigtower has a talking volcano that's saying "EAAAAT!" Wait, what? A surprise goo monster makes this a job for the Princess in Black, and the Princess in Blankets is on the scene to lend a hand. But will two masked heroes be enough to save the science fair? A little scientific problem-solving -- and a lot of princess power -- will make the sixth entry in the New York Times best-selling series a smash hit.
